Great to hear that you have a gun that you can shoot and have fun with. Thinking of range reports, reminds me of the rate of fire report in the back of the new american thunder book comparing different ammo. Interesting reading.

You earlier stated that your gun was too fast for the C drum. How heavy is your bolt compared to say an original M1A1 bolt.

"MY" post sample 28 was made without the blish lock feature, just the straight slot and we used a simple nut-and-bolt to hold the actuator and bolt together. I knew it shot fast, but it wasn't until we held a M1A1 and it side by side and pulled the triggers. The M1A1 still had about 10 rounds left (out of 30) when the 28 ran dry.Dan
